 Linking the Future
As the worldwide leader in the energy and telecom cable industries, Prysmian Group
believes in the effective, efficient and sustainable supply of energy and information as a
primary driver in the development of communities.

With this in mind, we provide major global organizations in many industries with best-
in-class cable solutions, based on state-of-the-art technology. Through two renowned
commercial brands – Prysmian and Draka – based in almost 100 countries, we’re
constantly close to our customers, enabling them to further develop the world’s energy
and telecoms infrastructures, and achieve sustainable, profitable growth.

Introducing fiber optic systems for

Overhead Transmission Lines
Overhead optical fiber cable systems have become a key factor in
telecommunication networks used by operators and power utilities.
Due to the fact that minimal civil works are required and the rights of way have already been
established, it is possible to minimize costs and, most importantly, the time required to begin
network operation.

Prysmian offers its customers a broad range of fiber optic cables for
overhead cable networks:
Optical Ground Wire (OPGW)
Composite optical ground wire system for installation on high voltage electric lines.

All Dielectric Cable (ADSS)

Self-supporting optical cable for all types of lines:
transport electrical lines, distribution electrical lines, railways lines, etc.

The main advantages of Prysmian’s solutions include the following:
High reliability and proven experience
We have installed over 200,000km (124,000
miles) of OPGW since 1983 in more than 100
countries in all five continents.
Manufacturing capabilities
Prysmian has a growing production capacity
of more than 25,000km of OPGW cables per
year in three different continents; Europe,
America and Asia.
OHSAS 18001 and ISO 14001
Prysmian Group is involved in implementing
management and production processes which
help improve environmental sustainability
and safety at work, in accordance with the
guidelines of its HSE policy.
ISO 9001 and TL9000
The Prysmian brand has always been a
guarantee for the supply of products and
services based on common worldwide quality
standards. Prysmian has a built-in multi-step
quality assurance program, which covers the
entire production process from cable design and
raw materials purchasing, to final inspection and
testing documentation.
Full range of technologies
Because we own all of the required technology,
we provide every customer with the most
appropriate and relevant technical solution for
any single project. Prysmian Group never has a
pre-determined answer to a challenge – instead,
we always recommend the best solution on a
case-by-case basis.

Long Span ADSS
All-Dielectric Self-Supporting Loose Tube Cable

All-Dielectric Self-Support (ADSS) fiber cable for up

to 2600' (800m) spans common in transmission

Overview Features and Benefits

Prysmian’s Long Span ADSS version provides reliable
self-support performance for up to 2,600 feet (800 meters).
Each Long Span ADSS cable is custom engineered for
optimum placement on utility towers and to operate under
full weather load, ensuring safe reliable lifetime performance.
For installation on high-voltage lines up to 275 kV, an optional
track-resistant jacket prevents dry-band arcing damage.
Available up to 288 fibers, cables greater than 72 fibers
utilize a 24 fiber per tube design to reduce environmental
load (12 fibers per tube design is also available for fiber
counts of 84-144).
Product Snapshot
Proven Long Span Installation & Use
- Tailored designs span distances up to 2,600'
(800m) without interrupting power
- Higher count designs utilize 24 fiber per tube to
reduce diameter and environmental loading
Easy Cable Entry & Preparation
- Ripcord speeds cable entry & outer jacket removal
- Swellable binders speed cable preparation
- Available bend-insensitive single-mode fiber

Applications Self-supporting aerial deployment for
communications & power transmission space
Constructions All-dielectric round - typical span lengths up to
2,600’ (800m), single and dual jacket, and track
resistant
Fiber Count 12 to 288 fibers in color-coded buffer tubes
Fiber Types Single-mode /bend-insensitive/ NZDSF /
multimode / hybrid
- 2.6 mm tube with 12 fibers per tube; 3.0 mm tube
with 24 fibers per tube (with two 12 fiber binder
groups)
Reliable Lifetime Performance
- Custom engineered for operation under full load
- Available with zero fiber strain at the maximum
rated cable load (MRCL) or with a SafeStrain
design limiting fiber strain to 0.20%
- Guaranteed standards-based performance

Options Track resistant jacket, SafeStrain or ZeroStrain

PLP ATTACHMENT HARDWARE CONSIDERATIONS

- Dead-ends indicated are Limited & Medium Tension dead-ends. The Limited Tension dead-end is designed for a
maximum long-term tension of 1000 lbs and short-term tension of 2500 lbs. The Medium Tension dead-end is
designed for 2000 lbs for long-term tensions and 4000 lbs for short-term loads. Semi-high or High Tension dead-
ends should be used for higher tension ratings.
- Limited Tension dead ends are limited to a maximum span length of 600 feet.
- C1E1 designates thimble clevis and extension link (recommended).
- Aluminum Suspension is designed for in-line support with a maximum angle change of 20° and a maximum span
of 600 feet.
- Spans of > 600 to 1200 feet require reinforcing rods (SSR).
- The “S” designates anchor shackle and eye-nut (recommended).
- Vibration dampers may be required.
- Aluminum support is designed for in-line support with a maximum angle change of 20° and a maximum span of
600 feet.
